Author Insight: Wait on the muse or kinap her...

Do you write when you're inspired, or do you write to get inspired?


"I write because I love it--and because it is my job. Inspiration comes--the writing must go on even when doubts creep in."- Elizabeth Scott, author of Grace.




"Both." - Heidi Kling, author of Sea.



"I write every day, so inspiration comes and goes. For me, the only way I can work is if I show up every day and put in the work, whether or not the inspiration is there." - Scott Tracey, author of Witch Eyes.




"I can't go too long without writing. If I do, I feel off balance, kind of icky. However, I can't start on a new idea until I get sparks from it." - Danielle Joseph, author of Indigo Blues.
